So yeah. I went a bit insane and set up a dating profile on a site for same sex couples.

"Hi!"

I'm interested in a relationship with a woman and I figured that kind of site would at least mean I wouldn't be approached by men - genuine, ->-bleeped-<-s, creeps or otherwise.
Anyway I thought I'd see how it goes - there are a few ladies in Oz but not that many in my age range or location. One of them has already sent me an "ice breaker", and that was before I set up my profile properly (now done). I've responded with a "smile" and some of my own "ice breakers".
I don't know about my chances generally. If I get contacted by any woman with a proposal to meet up I will come clean that I'm trans and still have "original plumbing" but hope to have a renovation this year. If she decides to bail at that point, fair enough - people often have sexual choice because they prefer certain genitals to others, and I understand that for some lesbian women (especially if they have been abused or raped) a penis, regardless of who it is attached to, is very unpalatable. But if she decides to give me a go, that's awesome. And scary. Very scary. But in an exciting kind of way.
Hopefully being trans doesn't get me kicked off the site. I've heard of that happening.

Anyway, fingers crossed that my insanity pays off and I meet a gorgeous, caring and loving gal for fun, chats and frolics!
